Tom saw an advertisement in Washington News for a beautiful, modern bicycle which cost $60, so he
went to the shop which had put the advertisement in and asked to see one of their nice bicycles. The
shopkeeper was very happy to show one to Tom. He examined (检查) it carefully and then turned to the
shopkeeper, saying, "There isn"t a lamp on this bicycle, but there was one on the bicycle in your
advertisement."
"Yes, Sir," answered the shopkeeper, "but the lamp isn"t included in the price of the bicycle. It"s an
extra."
"Not included in the price of the bicycle!" Tom said angrily. "But that"s not honest. If the lamp"s in the

We were on a visit to Monkey Island. Jim thought we should try water skiing(滑水). We can get a boat and skis at Monkey Island.
"Don"t go water skiing near Monkey Island today," said the woman standing near the boats. "There
might be sharks(鲨鱼) in the water."
"I don"t think so." said Jim who thought he knew everything.
"I wouldn"t go water skiing in the sea near Monkey Island today," said the man with the woman. "They
saw sharks in the water yesterday."
"The sharks won"t hurt me," said Jim with a big smile on his face.
Another man getting out of a boat said, "I"m sure we just saw a shark in the water a few minutes ago."
"Don"t worry about me," said Jim. "I don"t worry about sharks."
Jim and his two friends, Bill and Bruce pushed the boat into the water. Jim was driving the boat. He
drove very fast and sprayed water on everyone standing near the boat.
Jim drove the boat to the middle of the sea near Monkey Island. Everyone could see him and the boat. He wanted to show everyone how well he could water ski.
"You drive the boat, Bill," Jim said. "Bruce, you watch me and the rope while I water ski."
"What about the sharks?" asked Bill.
"Forget about the sharks," said Jim. "I"m not afraid of sharks."
Jim got into the water. He was putting his feet in the water skis. Then Jim felt something large and hard
touch his leg as it swam past him. Suddenly, a brown fin(鳍) moved through the water towards Jim.
Later, when Bill and Bruce stopped laughing, they said, "We never saw anyone move so fast! You were running on top of the water to get back in the boat! You even left the water skis in the water.
"There it is again! Shark! Shark!" cried Jim.

people that one person 1 each family had to bring a glass of milk during the night and put it into the
pond. So, by the morning, the pond should be 2 of milk.
After 3 the order, everyone went home. As one man prepared his milk, he thought that since
everyone was bringing milk, he would just 4 a glass of water and put that into the pond instead. 5
it was dark at night, no one would notice it, so he quickly went and put the water into the pond and 6
home.

When I was about 12, I had an enemy, a girl who liked to point out my shortcomings (缺点). Sometimes she said I was thin. Sometimes she said I was lazy. Sometimes she said I wasn"t a good student. Sometimes she said I talked too much, and so on. I tried to put up with (忍受) her as long as I could. At last, I became very angry. I ran to my father with tears in my eyes. He listened to me quietly, and then he asked, "Are the things she said true or not? Mary, didn"t you ever wonder what you"re really like? Go and make a list of everything she said and mark the points that are true. Pay no attention to the other things she said." I did as he told me and to my surprise, I discovered that about half the things were true. I brought the list back to my dad. He refused to take it. "That"s just for you," he said. "You know better than anyone else the truth about yourself. When something said about you is true, you"ll find it will be helpful to you. Don"t shut your ears.
